Re: John Greist on the New Skippy Car

The new cars ( carbon fiber tubs ) appear to be heading the way of the old pro series and look what happened to it !

I for one would be back if the costs would come back down. In fact I think a lot of us from back in the 90's would be back if the costs came down.

A race weekend now is $2500, to me thats about $ 800 too much. While renting a Spec Miata is about 1450, it's no where near as much fun as the old FD's where. And I had a lot of fun in the FD.

SBRS used to be and may still very well be the best bang for the buck, I've been away so long I'm not sure.

But bring down the costs and I'm sure the series fields, including the Eastern, Western, Mid Western and Southern will all grow.

Just my 2 cents.
